The previous Godskitchen in Cape Town…MAD!!

So this is just in, from the Smirnoff Facebook group and from a few sneaky tweets on THE TWITTER. Godskitchen is coming to South Africa again, shows in Cape Town and Johannesburg, with Above & Beyond featuring. This is what Smirnoff said on Facebook:

Smirnoff is amped to confirm the rumours about the return of the world’s leading club brand, GODSKITCHEN, to Cape Town and Johannesburg. The Godskitchen Boombox which had World Number 1 DJ Armin van Buuren rocking sold out shows mid last year returns with the world’s most famous trance trio to shake the foundations on 19 and 20 November this year.

Post your guess as to who the world famous talent might be… And you could be one of the winners receiving 2 sought after VIP tickets to the show in Cape Town or Johannesburg.

All will be revealed next week so make sure to let us know before then to stand a chance to win.

Oh this is probably a WORLD EXCLUSIVE, any mentions of this WILL have a link back to the SLXS Media Empire. Thanks.

But seriously, do you have any idea how huge this is? It is clinically insane, I think I’m breaking wood! Check it:

But I really don’t care about that, I just choose to live a life instead.

But just to let you know, if you enjoy sitting on your nuts all day and talking about lactic threshholds, power outputs and generally jerking about on your bike, then the Argus Cycle Tour entries open today, in just over an hours time.

Now I know all the boys are going to be creaming their pants at this thought, wondering which group they will be in, wondering which outfit to choose and generally wondering why chicks don’t actually dig them.

Sorry, I’m just bitter because my bike is a little broken. Riding old school Kona. Keeping it simple. No carbon.

The comments below that were talking about the exact thing I had seen. Then Caterina posted this photo:

And here are my two photos, taken on my Blackberry:

Which just goes to show.

The Best Camera Is The One That’s With You.

And it also shows what an amazing place we live in, where people are generally amazed by these sorts of things…you just never tire of it. I hope you all saw it yesterday!

A Macbook is listed at $999. Locally, we’re looking at paying R11000 for a Macbook. So in that case, we take the dollar price and multiply it by 11 to find the ZAR price.

An iPhone 3GS 8GB on the Apple website is $99. Locally, an 8GB iPhone 3G is R7100. That is now suddenly 71 times more than the dollar price! 71 TIMES! Digicape, are you smoking crack? Have you got foetal alcohol syndrome? Are your directors raging alcoholics? Are you saving up for an end of year staff party in St Barts?

While Digicape don’t have iPhone 4 prices up yet, PC Direct do.

iPhone 4…how is this more expensive than a Macbook, when it is over three times cheaper in dollars?

They’re a cool R12782, that’s more expensive than a Macbook. Excuse me, but WTF is going on here? Are the South African public being treated like we have learning disabilities and can’t see what is going on here?

Let’s round that iPhone 4 price down to R12000 for the 32GB…that’s 40 times more than the dollar price. ($299 US) So the iPhone 4 is more expensive here than a Macbook, and yet a Macbook is $999 and an iPhone 4 is $299.

So the South African prices range from 11 times, to 40 times, to 71 times the dollar price…is no one else seeing this?

SERIOUSLY IT FEELS LIKE I’M ON CRAZY PILLS AT EARTHDANCE!

Can anyone provide me with answers?

Digicape?

PC Direct?

I guess it’s hard to speak though when you’re at your million dollar staff party, and there is an eight ball in your mouth.

That video spread quickly over the internet amassing some 4.5 million views. To get that many views on traditional media would cost a fortune. Viral marketing is no doubt the way to go if you want your brand noticed in this day and age because everyone is in one the social media vibe, and a hit like this can spread across the globe. The only problem is that it’s difficult to replicate successes like this. We could definitely use more viral advertising locally…but I suppose it’s not that easy.

So next time asks you about viral advertising…well now you know!

You see, you learn something new every day! I’m joking, I have learnt absolutely nothing today, but then again, I did fail my IQ test on Friday. Not the highlight of my entire life, but at least I can say I tried it.

A lot of people post links and business stuff on Twitter, talking about how awesome they are, how awesome their lives are, what they are doing, how well they are doing for themselves, how awesome their jobs are etc. I don’t care about these people, I just care about having a laugh. So if you want to increase your IQ, find links to articles that will make your life better, or learn anything new, then don’t follow me. Follow me if you want to have a laugh and learn how to live life less seriously. To show you an example of what you can expect on the seandlloyd (D for Danger) Twitter account, here is a posting from this weekend, with the caption ‘I am officially banned from toys r us’:

Yes.I.Am.Awesome. I obviously erased it before leaving, but it would have been kind of cool if I just left it.

Click here to follow me, and see more awesome stuff! Twitter is basically small little bits of my life, sort of like a mini SLXS. It’s my ideas and thoughts, and allows you a small gap to the inner working of my brain. Put all those little bits together, and you have the complete me, the SLXS you read.

Rad stuff people!

The Home Page

On the home page, I really dig the slider at the top, where you can scroll through some selected galleries, ones that you may want to feature prominently on the site.

Gallery

So you click through to a set of photos, and that brings you to a page where you can click individual photos, and they are enlarged at the top of the gallery, like this:

Very, very cool! If I were a photographer (Not to say I’m not!) I’d be using this theme right away. No messing about with these free themes that some people use, what is this, home school? Photolist is perfect for photographers wanting to offer an online gallery for their work, without paying some ridiculous price for web design.

I use Obox for a couple of reasons:

• Design. I find some theme designs too ‘perfect’ shall we say. Almost too clinical. Obox themes have a certain flair and alternative feel to them, focusing on minimalism a lot of the time. I always feel that content is what makes a blog, and this is true on all blogs. Obox just package that content in a very streamlined look that I love. And all their themes are compatible with all modern web browsers.

• Price. $30 for two Obox themes? You cannot go wrong.

• Support. The support from Obox is amazing, post a question to the forums, and the guys will get back to you quickly, with the right answers. I’ve never had a hassle with Obox.

• Themes for people who just want to publish. Whenever I chat to people, they assume that I know everything about how a website works. The truth is, I have no idea! Obox themes are for people who want to publish content quickly and easily. You don’t have to delve into the code to install Google Analytics or your logo. Adding and removing adverts is made simple, and can be done by anyone. I’ve had people ask me how their themes work (Bought from other companies, Studio Press being an example) and some of these themes are a nightmare to try and figure out. Not with Obox. Everything is simple and straight forward, leaving you with time to blog, not browse through code and manuals on how your theme works.

So if you’re looking to start a blog, or are just looking for a fresh new theme, then have a look at Obox themes. And take advantage of their 2 for 1 offer, two themes for the price of one. That’s 2 themes for $30!

Not approved? RAD!

Is it because I’m different? Because I’m not one of the cool kid SA bloggers who have a million links in my blogroll? Is is because I stray from the safety of safe writing and safe behavior? Is it because of this photo doing the round of me massaging Postman Pats nose?

Do I not participate properly in the blogging fraternity? Do I not stick by the ‘rules’?  Should I start another overdone photo blog? Do I not post enough? All the cool kids are going for the quantity vs quality/originality idea of writing these days…

In fact, I should act spoilt and before I know that I haven’t been nominated, I should drop out of the awards due to a gross lack of confidence. In the judging panel.

Jeepers, imagine that?

Neville — killing kids dreams of a sneaky handski/mouthski from their bird before their folks pick them up outside McDonalds

Crisis, he’s still there, going strong!

Not much talk of him moving up the ladder at work, our boy is at the top, making sure kids aren’t jerking each other off at the movies. Running into the movies with his torch, all Horatio Caine style.

Neville you LEGEND!
